Trendy Baker's Twine - Boo!

Hello and welcome back, everyone! 

Guest Designer Lisa from The Relativity of Paper.

Today I'm sharing cards featuring the Happy Halloween Stamp Set and one of this month's feature products, Gray Licorice Trendy Twine. 

I'm sure we all find ourselves needing a quick card? I love sentiment stamps because you can create a quick background with very little effort and produce adorable cards. 

To create the cards above I stamped "BOO" along the bottom half of a 4.25" x 5.5" piece of cardstock, decided on the position of the cardstock and then cut it, the top half of the cardstock is cut down to fit the front of our card allowing for a reveal between the top and bottom pieces. Wrap Gray Licorice Trendy Twine around your card base where you plan on placing the reveal and stamp the sentiment across the trendy twine with white ink. It's transparent giving a ghostly effect. I decided to add a little interest by dry embossing cobwebs using my BigKick and scored a line between the cobwebs and BOO sentiment. Add 3D mounting foam to the back of the two pieces of cardstock and adhere to a 4.25" x 5.5" top-fold card base. I finished off the cards by including a die-cut ghost and a few clear iridescent sequins. 

For the second card, I used the same process and stamped Hello Boo-tiful alternating Distress Oxide Inks - Carved Pumpkin, Twisted Citron and Wilted Violet.

Trendy Bakers Twine ~ Witchy Mini Popcorn Box

Hello all and happy Thursday!  Beth from Beth's Beauties sharing a fun treat box I recently made. This month we are showcasing Gray Licorice Trendy Twine, which is perfect for Halloween!

This whole project was based around the sentiment from the APB Happy Halloween stamp set that I thought was so much fun!  So, I started with a Black Mini Popcorn Box, wrapped Gray Licorice Trendy Twine around it and added a witch hat tag I cut out from SVG Attic.  I added Totally Grape Trendy Twine for the hat band and a curlicue of Gray Licorice Trendy Twine at the top of the hat and sentiment tags.  To create the curls, I cut a section of Trendy Twine, saturated it in liquid fabric starch, wrapped it around a paintbrush handle and let it to dry.  Very simple, yet it adds a different visual flair to the finished product.

Here is what I used from Annie's Paper Boutique:

Trendy Baker's Twine - You are Spooktacular

Hello and welcome, everyone!

Guest Designer, Lisa from The Relativity of Paper. I'm super excited to be sharing another fun sweet treat project showcasing the October's featured products, Gray Licorice Trendy Twine and Skinny Candy Chutes.  

This treat holder makes a sweet gift for teachers, kids or someone in the office. Skip the envelope with this one and place it on a desk or counter. The recipient will have a nice Halloween surprise waiting for them. 

This is such an easy project. I have a pictorial below. 

You will need a 7.75"(H) x 8.25"(W) heavy cardstock for this project. I recommend at least #80 lb, that's what I used. 

Lay the paper horizontally on scoreboard and score at the .75", 1.5" and 2.25" marks. Set aside. 

Die-cut the top of the pattern papers, align and adhere together. Trim so the pattern papers are 8.125" (W). 

Using a temporary adhesive or post- it tape center the pattern papers on the cover stock ABOVE the .75" score line. 

Flip the paper over on a paper trimmer and cut at 1.5", 2.25", 6" and 6.75" marks cutting from the .75" to the 2.25" scored lines creating straps. (See picture below) Make sure not to cut past those scored lines. 

Add a stronghold adhesive as shown in the picture above. Flip the paper over and permanently adhere the pattern papers. Be sure to never add adhesive over the cut lines, they need to be able to move freely. Flip back over and fold on the .75" score lined up, adhering it to the back of the next section. 

Score the cover at 4.25" and fold to create the card. 

You should be able to slide a skinny candy chute into the two straps on the front of the card. 

Add candy to the Skinny Candy Chute, slide it into place and secure by wrapping Gray Licorice Trendy Twine around the candy chute and tie. I stamped the You Are Spooktacular sentiment from the Annie's Paper Boutique Happy Halloween Stamp Set on the inside of the card. 

Now the fun part, decorating the front of the card. And that brings us back to this.

Trendy Baker's Twine - Hand Over the Candy

Hello and welcome, everyone! 

I'm Lisa from The Relativity of Paper. 

I'm so excited to be guest designing for the month of October here at 

Twine It Up! 

This month's featured products are

  Gray Licorice Trendy Twine and Skinny Candy Chutes.

I'm sharing a sweet treat and card combo. 

To create the sweet treat you will need a Skinny Candy Chute, painter's tape or washi tape, inexpensive paint brush, and orange, yellow and white chalk paint. 

Using tape, tape off 5 sections to be painted. Starting with orange chalk paint, paint the bottom section completely, paint half of the fourth section with orange, too. Blend yellow chalk paint into orange (fourth section) while the paint is still wet. Paint the third section yellow and half of the second section yellow. Finish off with white chalk paint blending white with yellow in the second section and completely paint the first section white. Let dry. Fill with candy corn. 

To create the card I used pattern paper from my stash with coordinating stickers, Gray Licorice Trendy Twine and Annie's Paper Boutique Happy Halloween Stamp Set.

I created the sentiment background paper simply by repeat stamping the sentiment in orange and yellow ink and stamped the "trick or treat" sentiment over it using black ink. All the sentiments are from the Happy Halloween Stamp Set. Set to the side. Mat a 4.25"x5.5" top-fold card with pattern paper, layer the stamped background paper using fun or 3D mounting foam. Using an edge die-cut cut a piece of pattern paper and adhere to the left side of the card. Add stickers using 3D mounting foam, adhere clear sequins and embellish with Gray Licorice Trendy Twine. Stamp Happy Halloween inside the card.

Trendy Bakers Twine ~ Halloween Treat Chutes

Hello all and happy Thursday!  Beth from Beth's Beauties sharing the treat bags I made.  This month we are showcasing Gray Licorice Trendy Twine, which is perfect for Halloween, and Skinny Candy Chutes.  I paired the two of those together in these Halloween treats!

I filled the Skinny Candy Chutes with candy corn and embellished with Gray Licorice Trendy Twine wrapped around the chute and attached a Lemon Tag-It.  The Lemon Tag-It comes with one hole punched in it, but I added another one to the opposite side of the tag so I could have both sides secured with the Trendy Twine.  I added Lime Orangesicle Trendy Page Dots around the holes on the tag-it.  The sentiments were stamped from the APB Happy Halloween stamp set and the finishing touch was adding bat sequins from Lime Licorice Batty Sequins.

Trendy Twine - Teacher Appreciation

Hello Trendy Twine friends! Janice here today from Janice's Jems to share with you a quick and easy project made with beautiful Trendy Twine!

I have 45 teacher gifts to make for a junior high school. I started off with some chocolates from Purdy's Chocolatier and created vellum tags then heat embossed the sentiment. I used eyelets to finish off the sides and then put it all together with Gray Licorice twine from Annie's Paper Boutique!

This twine has been so perfect for so many year end gifts and is great for graduation touches!

Thank you so much for allowing me the privilege to guest design! It's been so much fun!
